Love's Body, Reissue of 1966 edition

"Provocative as Norman O. Brown is, he is also very hard to refute. The most important reason is that, in my judgment, he is so largely right. His brilliance is a great joy to the reader."—Edgar Z. Friedenberg, Book Week

"Love's Body is a modern Thus Spake Zarathustra. Professor Brown is affiliating himself to a major line of nineteenth- and twentieth-century prophets, such as Nietzsche, Carlyle, D. H. Lawrence, oddest of all, Emerson. . . . Norman Brown has the same apocalyptic imagery, fire, resurrection, the judgment, the body, and a very similar apocalyptic message."—Martin Green, Commonweal

"Norman O. Brown is variously considered the architect of a new view of man, a modern-day shaman, and a Pied Piper leading the youth of America astray. His more ardent admirers, of whom I am one, judge him one of the seminal thinkers who profoundly challenge the dominant assumptions of the age. Although he is a classicist by training who came late to the study of Freud and later to mysticism, he has already created a revolution in psychological theory."—Sam Keen, Psychology Today

"What a provocative, original and richly imaginative book it is."—Eliot Fremont-Smith, The New York Times
